This weekend at Merchants on Main we're having a huge sale in the parking lot! It's a great opportunity for many of the dealers to move some older merchandise and to make room for new pieces that will be added for the upcoming holiday season. And of course, it's a great opportunity for shoppers to score some great deals!

The image above is the entrance to my space. Most items inside the store (and including my space) will have tons of discounted merchandise!

I also wanted to share some pictures of some of the other dealer's spaces, too.

We just got this amazing pink sofa in this week. So Hollywood! If it were about 2 feet shorter, I would be writing this blog post while lounging on it in my living room. And wait, here's the best part

the pink fabric is a textured Greek Key pattern.

Now we'll go in a whole different direction over to "Endurance" This booth has a great collection of vintage artifacts combined with natural elements - kinda steampunk. It's a great textural look and Erin has a real gift for putting it all together. This booth never disappoints!

And of course, let's not forget the lamps

And we'll round out the tour with a little whimsy! If you're in the area, please try to stop by. I'd love to meet you!

which I first noticed in this month's Lonny. Celerie Kemble used it in an office/guest bedroom in a New York penthouse and I loved it immediately! I wasted no time heading over to Urban Outfitters to see the bedding for myself when I came across some other great options I wanted to share with you.

So we're plugging away over at Project Dollhouse and I wanted to share the inspiration and some of the selections for the master bedroom. Do you think you could be inspired to design a bedroom around a tea tin?

This is my muse! It's a pretty tea tin I came across recently and I fell in love with the jade green and tomato red color scheme and the oriental design. So, here is how it gets translated into a master bedroom.

First, the paint

Spruce Green by Benjamin Moore. This is a pretty accurate representation of the color in person. It's more vibrant than most of the other color selections in the house.

This screen will serve as the headboard. I blogged about this idea here.

Have you had a chance to peruse Lonny's latest issue? There's so much to love there, (particularly Celerie Kemble's New York City project). What I'm most enamored with is how beautifully layered all the spaces are. They're so more than an assemblage of pretty furnishings in coordinating colors. The rooms don't feel sterile or "staged"; instead they feel comfortable, collected and interesting. And they all have that one element we all strive to create - soul. Take a look and see what you think.
